Freezing temperatures can quickly become dangerous for pets. Even a few minutes outside in the cold can put them at risk, especially when it drops below 32°F. These pets need extra protection:

❄️ Puppies, kittens, and senior pets
❄️ Pets with low body fat
❄️ Short- or thin-coated breeds
❄️ Pets with hypothyroidism
❄️ Small-breed dogs

Keep them warm, limit time outdoors, and always bring them inside during extreme cold.
